Which of the following geometric series converges?
Mars2501 [29]
All three series converge, so the answer is D.
The common ratios for each sequence are (I) -1/9, (II) -1/10, and (III) -1/3.
Consider a geometric sequence with the first term a and common ratio |r| < 1. Then the n-th partial sum (the sum of the first n terms) of the sequence is

Multiply both sides by r :

Subtract the latter sum from the first, which eliminates all but the first and last terms:

Solve for :

Then as gets arbitrarily large, the term will converge to 0, leaving us with

So the given series converge to
(I) -243/(1 + 1/9) = -2187/10
(II) -1.1/(1 + 1/10) = -1
(III) 27/(1 + 1/3) = 18

Simplify (8-7i)(-6+i)
Mrac [35]

Answer:

50 i - 41

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

(-7 i + 8) (i - 6)

(8 - 7 i) (i - 6) = (8) (-6) + (8) (i) + (-7 i) (-6) + (-7 i) (i):

-6×8 + 8 i - 6 (-7 i) - 7 i×i

-6×8 = -48:

-48 + 8 i - 7 i (-6) - 7 i×i

-7 (-6) = 42:

-48 + 8 i + 42 i - 7 i×i

-7 i×i = -7 i^2:

-48 + 8 i + 42 i + -7 i^2

i^2 = -1:

-48 + 8 i + 42 i - 7-1

-7 (-1) = 7:

-48 + 8 i + 42 i + 7

-48 + 8 i + 42 i + 7 = (8 i + 42 i) + (7 - 48) = -41 + 50 i:

Answer: 50 i - 41

Please help! geometry probabilities​
Sladkaya [172]
You have -4,-3,-2, that is a 3 out of a total of 21 points or numbers on the number line. 3/21 is reduces to 1/7.
3 goes into 21 , 7 times. That is why it reduces to 1/7.

You are under contract to design a storage building with a square base and a volume of 14,000 cubic feet. the cost of materials
Goryan [66]
The first thing we are going to do for this case is define variables.
 We have then:
 y = the cost of the box
 x = one side of the square base
 z = height of the box
 The volume of the building is 14,000 cubic feet:
 x ^ 2 * z = 14000
 We cleared z:
 z = (14000 / x ^ 2)
 On the other hand, the cost will be:
 floor = 4 (x ^ 2)
 roof = 3 (x ^ 2)
 for the walls:
 1 side = 16 (x * (14000 / x ^ 2)) = 16 (14000 / x)
 4 sides = 64 (14000 / x) = 896000 / x
 The total cost is:
 y = floor + roof + walls
 y = 4 (x ^ 2) + 3 (x ^ 2) + 896000 / x
 y = 7 (x ^ 2) + 896000 / x
 We derive the function:
 y '= 14x - 896000 / x ^ 2
 We match zero:
 0 = 14x - 896000 / x ^ 2
 We clear x:
 14x = 896000 / x ^ 2
 x ^ 3 = 896000/14
 x = (896000/14) ^ (1/3)
 x = 40
 min cost (y) occurs when x = 40 ft
 Then,
 y = 7 * (40 ^ 2) + 896000/40
 y = 33600 $
 Then the height
 z = 14000/40 ^ 2 = 8.75 ft
 The price is:
 floor = 4 * (40 ^ 2) = 6400
 roof = 3 * (40 ^ 2) = 4800
 walls = 16 * 4 * (40 * 8.75) = 22400
 Total cost = $ 33600 (as calculated previously)
 Answer:
 
The dimensions for minimum cost are:
 
40 * 40 * 8.75
